Our final day of the tour started with breakfast at 7:30am. I woke up exhausted in our hostel but determined to eat something, not realizing that they would've held onto a bagel for me later. I dressed and headed down to the hostel cafeteria where we'd had dinner the night before. I found a tour [...]
Want something sweet with your coffee or tea? What about an all you can eat table of bread and baked goods from the bakery next door?
Small popular ramen shop in Daegu.
After dinner we headed to Duryu baseball park to get a spot for the festival. The lantern festival is in celebration of Buddha's birthday, and kicks off the celebrations a bit early. (The date for Buddha's birthday changes depending on where you are, in Korea it's the 8th day of the 4th month of lunar [...]
Before going to the festival we stopped at 9 Road Pizzeria for dinner, a chain restaurant, hoping to make sure we ate before going and it was an odd dinner.

I took a short weekend trip recently to visit a friend in Daegu and for a festival. She's been doing a lot more exploring and said she had a ton of places she suggested we check out, one of which was G'day a Australian inspired brunch restaurant/cafe.

Surprisingly we didn't end up with any tea, choosing instead to try some of their specialty drinks, like rose ade and a chocolate cereal milkshake called Choco Crush. I also got a chocolate [...]
After my night in Seoul I headed to Daegu to stay with a friend for the night before we'd continue further south to Gyeongju. I spent my afternoon wandering around shops while I waited for her to get off work, and then eventually we went in search of the ever elusive Daegu barbecue restaurant street. We [...]
I love parks, forests, conservatories and arboretums so when I saw there was one in Daegu I was pretty excited to go. Since it was kind of far away from where we were we decided to go there first and then work our way back. The Daegu Arboretum is free and was really popular with [...]
